Ancient Corinth & Canal Private Tour: Footsteps of St Paul

Swap the city crowds for one of the great cities of the ancient world, in just half a day. Your English-speaking driver picks you up from your hotel, apartment or Piraeus cruise port in a private, air-conditioned vehicle with Wi-Fi and bottled water, and follows the coastal road west to the Corinth Canal. Stand on the bridge as sheer rock walls drop to the water far below. A short drive brings you to Ancient Corinth, once one of the richest cities in Greece and the place where St Paul lived and preached for about two years. Explore the ruins and the 6th-century BC Temple of Apollo, then drive up toward Acrocorinth for a sweeping view over the Gulf of Corinth. Before heading back you can stop for lunch at a local taverna. It's just you, your group and your driver, so the timing is yours. That makes it easy to fit around a cruise ship's schedule.
